# Amarillo Palo Duro at Lubbock Coronado
The Mustangs roll into Coronado looking to upset a Mustangs squad that our model gives just a 55 percent edge at home, a virtual coin flip with a 2-point spread. Lubbock Coronado gets the nod in what shapes up as a tight district battle, but this one screams "fade the algorithm" territory for anyone who likes to trust their gut over the machines. Both teams have the talent to win this thing, which means you're either riding with the model's razor-thin confidence or betting your lunch money that the road team has something special brewing. Either way, expect a game that comes down to execution and who wants it more come Friday night.
